In this paper, we report an ionic liquid-in-water (IL/w) microemulsion (ME) formulation which is able to solubilize etodolac (ETO), a poorly water soluble drug for topical delivery using BMIMPF6 (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate) as IL, Tween 80 as surfactant and ethanol as

In this study, microemulsion microstructures, key formulation variables, and their relationship to drug transdermal permeation enhancement were investigated. A microemulsion system with high water soluble capacity was developed, using isopropyl myristate, Labrasol, and Cremophor EL as oil, surfactant, and co-surfactant

To improve the skin permeation of naproxen with larger dosage, microemulsion with high content of naproxen was investigated for transdermal delivery and its solubilization mechanism was studied. Naproxen micoremulsions composed of 4% isopropyl myristate, 18% Tween 80, 18% ethanol and

In order to elucidate the mode of action of the lipophilic penetration enhancer isopropyl myristate (IPM) on a molecular scale, we investigated oriented quaternary stratum corneum (SC) lipid model membranes based on ceramide AP, cholesterol, palmitic acid and cholesterol sulfate

In principle, maximum transepidermal fluxes of solutes should be similar for different vehicles, except when the solute or vehicle modifies the skin. Here we estimated maximum flux, stratum corneum solubility, diffusivity and permeability coefficient for a range of similarly sized
